Farewell Roxie

October 27 was an eventful day.  It was the birthday of my grandfather, who passed away several years back.  It was also the day my dog Roxie, decided to take a nap and never wake up.

Roxie was old.  She had health issues and was a bit senile, barking at anything and everything.  Although it will be different now that she's again I am somewhat appeased that she is better off.  She's probably with my other dogs who have moved on before her.

My bestfriend once told me that dogs, like all animals, don't have souls and don't really go anywhere after they die.  I don't think that's true.  If there was one thing we truly disagreed on it was this.  I couldn't believe that my God would create such creatures and simply forget them when they passed on.  I'd like to think that my God cared enough to open the gates to heaven and accept all creatures. Yes. Roxie and my other dogs are in heaven. This is what I believe.

Awkward. TV MOMents

I recently came upon a new series to keep my marathon cravings at bay.  That series as you may have already guessed from my blog title is "Awkward.".  I love season one and two and am still waiting for the series to complete its third season before I start watching it.

I love how the series seems to relive how I felt back in college -- falling for a guy who can't seem to admit in public that he likes you.  Which is why I am so into the character Matty Mckibben and the actor playing him, Beau Mirchoff.  I am living and breathing Beau Mirchoff these past few days.  Of course in reality, I didn't end up with my Matty Mckibben, instead I went for his best friend Jake Rosati. No regrets though, in real life my Jake Rosati was waaaay hotter than my real life Matty Mckibben.


But nevertheless, I can't help but drool at the sight of Matty/Beau Mirchoff.  I love him!  I can't wait to watch more of him in Awkward.

On another note, October is here and it can only mean one thing for me --- Season 4 of The Walking Dead is here and I get to see my beloved Daryl Dixon.  So far I have seen the first two episodes of the season and as usual it never fails to disappoint.
